A
person of integrity refrains from deliberate dishonesty and deception. What
comes to mind when you hear the word deception? Perhaps something from your
experience like being deceived into thinking or believing something that wasn't
true. Deception can look and sound like truth, can have shades of truth, but
beneath the surface things are not as they seem.
Have you omitted some of the facts concerning
an issue because you were scared or anxious about what could happen if the
whole truth were known? All of us are guilty of behaviors that have hurt or
harmed others. However we can change if we feel genuine sorrow and regret for
these behaviors and have made commitments to change.
Believing
that hope exists for new beginnings is motivation for rebuilding a wounded integrity.
Think of integrity as a guiding light within your conscience which guides you
through difficult decisions that would temp you to turn from God's truth. Jesus
said he is the Light of the World and in him there is no darkness. Choose to
walk in his light.
